The Scoop on History-APUSH and moreExpanding the horizon of AP US history– the useful, the strange, and the intersection of the two. This is the home of Scoop's APUSH classes at PHS– the smartest kids in the world!

These are the schedules I used the last year I taught APUSH, and I leave them here so that you can see one way to pace yourself so you do not get behind. Falling behind is deadly in APUSH, especially, since it is content dense, regardless of recent tweaking by the College Board. So here’s a resource for you.

It’s the official website for the sixth edition of our book (we have the thirteenth edition). It has 30-question quizzes for each chapter that are very useful for studying. Even though it’s for the sixth edition, it reviews the same material.

Hi, Scoop! I wrote you the code for the days counter. You *should* be able to copy-paste this in place of the actual number–leave all the surrounding text like ” DAYS to the EXAM!!!!!!!!”. If all goes well, it’ll work automagically and require no more updating:

Umm…. on this you say we have a test on Feb. 13th, but I’m pretty sure we don’t have school that day b/c the elementary schools have a report day. Unless that’s just the elementary schools that get off…

THE 2016 AP TEST IS MAY 11, 2018, at 7:30 am!!!!!

Almost exactly NINE MONTHS from the first day of school– just like a pregnancy! Except this one will absolutely end on time, no matter what.

Countdown to the Big Day!
